My unpopular opinion: Saying no to extra gigs made my freelance career better.

Turning down other jobs let me focus and charge more for what I do best.

Yeah, it's crazy how that works. Turning down stuff really does make everything else better.

That turning down stuff idea, @felix_coleman87, my friend passed on a gig and landed his dream job soon after.

Not sure I agree with that. Sometimes saying yes to random work, like you mentioned @felix_coleman87, has led me to my best long term clients.
